As a result, supervisors can spend more time supporting their teams and prioritizing customer orders.
- Self-service features and one-click actions enable teammates to request time off, check time-off balances, view schedules, and compare hours week-over-week, without manager assistance, right from their smartphone or using an on-site kiosk at the retailer’s fulfillment center.
